2023


Jan 8th Danbury Public Library at 2:30 pm

This meeting has been cancelled due to issues at the place where the meeting was to be held.


April 9th Madison-Mayodan Public Library



July 9th Danbury Public Library

​

Speaker for the meeting will be Douglas J. Butler, author of North Carolina Civil War Monuments: An Illustrated History. This extraordinary book was a book that seemed destined to be written, wrote the author in his preface. "Nearly two decades ago, noting controversies surrounding confederate monuments, my late father suggested that I photograph these commemorations ‘before they might be moved." Mr. Butler explained. He began to casually take snapshots of the monuments he encountered. Soon enough, he began to have a more intense curiosity about them as he began to read the inscriptions, look at the symbolism and note details of the portrayed subjects. This book with its artistic photographs, researched histories, and descriptions of settings has become extremely important in the present environment.


Oct 8th Madison-Mayodan Public Library







Swap Meetings





The swap meetings are held two times a year, once in Stokes and Rockingham Counties. The hours are from 9 am to 4 pm. We ask that everyone bring a covered dish to share for lunch, this way no one has to leave to get lunch.
